Clown a** ownership/front office, and the franchise is looking clownish.

Your avi has me rollin' as well like @CLG said. LOL

Got to the 27 minute mark.  Wish I had my 27 minutes back.

this organization is a pathetic joke and we have the worst owner in the NFL. 

i'm telling ya'll this owner is awful.

Love Cam, but let it go man. Whining about how he was cut does nothing for him now. He is a Patriot and should be worried about that, not the Panthers anymore. I get it, he deserved a face to face meeting, but the writing was on the wall which is why it took him a minute to get signed on a prove it deal worth up to $7.5 million.

Cam is an actor, he isn't real.  Anything he says is intended to put him in the best light.  I just wonder what story he'll make up when the Patriots thing goes south and he can't find a starting job anywhere. 

 

Do note, that Cam is one of the many athletes who think in this mindset.  It's difficult for them to accept that they've lost a step after being praised their entire lives.  Cam says he's tired of being humble.  Maybe he doesn't know what humble is.

Jake got a tear filled release. Hurney was at the podium crying and all, yet Hurney couldn’t even do the same for a player that they all thought was done, and thought his shoulder was “shot”. 
 

There’s more to it than that...

 

You can’t even use the excuse that Cam is a multimillionaire, because Jake was that too, and paid handsomely to leave. I guess there is a difference in who the millionaire is.

yeah, cam pissed off tepper.  making negotiations public with the commitment video, making videos about lying to the coach and trainers...

he pissed tepper off acting unprofessionally.  he got broken up with in a text because of it .  he already knew he was being released.  bus cook told him.   

if you don't own your own business go piss on paycheck's shoes and see what happens.  

and so what?  cam is in a better situation now anyway with a real chance to maximize his talents even if he did get drug on $

I have done that a few times. It's actually pretty fun.

Time to move on...for real this time

[rodeo]

lmfao love all this "it's been at least 2 weeks since your major career/life change, time to move on and stop talking about it" like you guys don't still talk about the patriots 'cheating' against the panthers 17 years ago

Our supposed ‘balls of brass’  owner could’ve picked up the phone and made the call

...been a few other things that have said a lot. 
 

 

 

The brass is wearing off those balls.

I always thought the way the Smitty departure was handled was extremely sh¡tty! It was easy to point the finger at Gettleman & Jerry Richardson as classless and unprofessional! Now, even under Mr. nice guy Hurney and David Tepper, the Panthers don't seem to have learned a thing. They were just as classless with Newton and Olsen! This crappy modus operandi needs to stop now! My team needs to get it together!

Jake Delhomme gets multiple phone calls and a huge press conference where both he and coaches along with the front office is sobbing. 

Cam Newton gets a text.

Not hard to read between the lines here and to also see why many here aren't backing Cam and not noticing how terrible this organization handled the situation.

Jake was loved by Richardson and the whole staff. He was also.let go by these same people  Cam's best years were with Gettleman and Richardson. Both long gone. Tepper had no loyalty to Cam and all he saw was a constant injury issue and 6 wins in 2 years and 40 million dollars already wasted and another 21 million for this year with no guarantee he will make it through the year. And Hurney is not the main force anymore. Rhule went with Bridgewater which was Brady's decision when he actually became available and Tom Brady went to Tampa which was Bridgewater's rumored likely suitor before that.  I think it was a football decision and not personal.  Was it just me who thought that the relationship between the Panthers and Cam had cooled down quite a bit last year.
